How about this scenario. Pope Benedict never deceived anyone intentionally with the mistakes in his resignation. The Holy Spirit protected him. The violation of the cannon law barring back stage wheeling, and dealing is enough to prove Francis is not a valid Pope, thus making everything he did invalid. Though I believe Pope Benedict to be wise as a serpent, and gentle as a dove, I don’t believe he would effectively lie about not being Pope anymore. That seems like a rather grave matter my friend.

Even Pope Francis said at the start of his Pontificate that Our Lady is not a mailman. Some of the messages over the years have contained blatantly heretical statements, which the Mother Of God would NEVER utter. She is FULL of Grace.
